The 200 gb/s network adapter that you linked are 4 times slower than 100GB/s. The parent comment wrote explicitly 100 Gbyte/s.

- justinclift 7y agoOops. Didn't spot that, sorry. :) That being said, after re-reading the comment they're talking about adding multiple PCIe cards to a box to achieve 100GB/s of local total throughput. That would be achievable over a network by adding multiple PCIe 200Gb/s network cards too. :)
- chx 7y agoNah, a motherboard with enough M.2 connectors could easily exist. Or, U.2 or OCuLink. We have already seen 1P EPYC servers with six OCULink connectors...
- justinclift 7y agoSure. My point is just that whatever bandwidth you can do locally, you can also do over the network. As a sibling comment mentions though... the cost difference would be substantial. :(
